This is the Circulation Manager for Library Simplified. The circulation manager is the main connection between a library's collection and Library Simplified's various client-side applications. It handles user authentication, combines licensed works with open access content from the OA Content Server, pulls in updated book information from the Metadata Wrangler, and serves up available books in appropriately organized OPDS feeds.
It depends on the LS Server Core as a git submodule.
Thorough deployment instructions, including essential libraries for Linux systems, can be found in the Library Simplified wiki. If this is your first time installing a Library Simplified server, please review those instructions.
Keep in mind that the metadata server requires unique database names and elasticsearch, as detailed below.
Create relevant databases in Postgres:
$ sudo -u postgres psql
CREATE DATABASE simplified_circulation_test;
CREATE DATABASE simplified_circulation_dev;
# Create users, unless you've already created them for another LS project
CREATE USER simplified with password '[password]';
CREATE USER simplified_test with password '[password]';
grant all privileges on database simplified_circulation_dev to simplified;
grant all privileges on database simplified_circulation_test to simplified_test;Install Elasticsearch.
On Linux:
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jreThen follow the instructions here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup-repositories.html
Or, on a brew-capable Mac:
$ brew tap caskroom/cask
$ brew install brew-cask
$ brew cask install java
$ brew install homebrew/versions/elasticsearch17To include the admin interface, set "include_admin_interface": "true" in the config file, and install the node module for the front-end application.
